Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, we have demonstrated that necrosis rather than apoptosis is a predominant form of alveolar epithelial cell death in LPS-induced experimental ARDS, and that necroptosis, a form of regulated necrosis, is involved in the alveolar epithelial cell death. Moreover, we have shown that mechanical ventilation with high tidal volume augments alveolar epithelial necrosis activating necroptotic pathway. These results suggest that the alveolar epithelial cell necroptosis is a promising therapeutic target for ARDS.
